idk if we should get too excited about their cap situation but losing kane is huge for them, now they got a hole to fill upfront, guess will have to see who they snag in free agency

idk about getting too excited tho, that kane deal is still a bit of a head-scratcher ngl @sean_kings

@andy_v: dont get too hung up on kane deal its just a minor setback, their power play was way undependable last season and thats whats gonna keep em from being a real contender

KI

tbh their pp was undependable last season but that's not gonna be fixed by just waving kane goodbye ngl it takes more than 1 guy to fix that mess imo

imo agree they lost a big one upfront but tbh its gotta be about more than just kane, dont get me wrong hes good but man their top line was always gonna need some scoring punch otherwise

ngl we cant just replace kane with anyone but i think they got some younger guys on their radar now dont @Kings17 kill me lol

idk about these younger guys they gotta get someone who can play center for real man

SE

yeah i'm worried theyre goin down that same rabbit hole of thinking a youth movement will work without gettin someone to run point center @KingsDiehard man, that just leads to more disaster

@section7lak i'm seein where u r goin with that but honestly think they learned from last time around man ngl gotta trust steve yzerman on this one

honestly man i gotta agree with u, steve yzerman hasnt had a chance to make much noise yet and its early but idk if i'd wanna rely on him for this kind of rebuild @section7lak is makin some good points too tbh

yeah idk about relying on yzerman tbh man, thats like putting all ur eggs in one basket and hes still gotta find that perfect center piece, gotta keep that cupboard stocked for real @sean_kings i think we forget how brutal those youth movements can be when they dont work out lol

SE

@KingsDiehard i gotta disagree man, steve yzerman has made some smart moves already, like that novotny signing

@sean_kings, novotny's cool but we still need a 1C 🙄📊💰

SE

@sean_kings: u think we need 1c that bad man? novotny's def been better than i expected

SE

novotny's been alright i guess but he aint no playoff center man @moe53's got a point about needing that top six guy tho ngl

yeah novotny's gonna be a decent depth guy but we all know he aint bringing playoff magic man, gotta find that legit top six center honestly

KI

yeah novotny will be a decent 3c but its still just that, depth man @sean_kings is right they gotta find someone who can step up into that top six role honestly
